As the daughter of a respite user i can only comment and review on the days my 93 year old mother was in there, I can't thank Rachel and James enough for their prompt and quick actions getting my mum in at such short notice so i could still go on my holiday, the staff were friendly and treated mum
with dignity and meet her needs as she had just had a fall, knowing that she was being cared for 24/7 as family it gave us peace of mind, she had three full meals a day she said it was good, the room was a lovely size and very comfortable for her, so once again Rachel thank you for your efficiency and making sure mums needs were meet at this very difficult time.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
my mother was living alone at home with visiting day care. She has very limited mobility and forgetful. I arranged for her to stay in Avonleigh Gardens while i was away because I knew she would not be able to care for herself during the night hours. On my return from holiday, my mother was so much brighter
and happier than she has been in a very long time. She said she had loved the care and attention she has been receiving. I knew my mother was at a stage where she needed more care than she was receiving at home so, I asked her if she would want me to apply for her to remain at Avonleigh Gardens to which she said yes please. In the 4 weeks my mum has been here, the staff I have met have all been so pleasant to speak to and continually ask if everything is ok to which the answer has always been yes apart from, mum likes Bran Flakes which they did not have but they went and bought some for her. Her room is bright and airy with everything she needs.
Thank you for taking care of my mum.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We were unable to meet the staff or view the home due to covid, however it was the best decision we could have made. The staff from cleaners to management always go over and above. They really are a second family. They are extremely experienced and knowledgeable about the residents needs, constantly
reviewing and recording.
The atmosphere is loving, welcoming and calm.
At the end of my dad's life, they asked for him to transfer from hospital so they could provide palliative care. Staff sat and had their break with him so he wouldn't be alone, he was truly loved.
They treated him with respect at all times and made a difficult time that bit easier.
On the day of his funeral, staff lined up to pay respects as the hearse took him from his home one last time.
They are an absolutely amazing, dedicated team, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. Thank you Deanwood for everything you have done.

Avonleigh Gardens

from M J (Daughter of Resident) published on 8 October 2025
Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 2.0 out of 5
I don't feel the staff have an adequate understanding of dementia. On one occasion, I overheard the manager speaking disrespectfully to a member of staff, unaware that I was behind the bedroom door.


During some of my visits, our mum was not dressed appropriately and was often left to her own devices

without proper support. The bedrooms are very dated and in need of refurbishment, and the furniture is also worn and tired.


The food provided was bland, with very little variety or choice. I also noticed that staff spent a significant amount of time on their devices. On top of this, one senior member of staff - described by my sister as having short hair - was extremely rude to my mother, which my sister personally overheard. Our Mum will not be returning for further respite.

Thank you all at Dean Wood Manor, now and into the future, from the bottom of our hearts.
Mum was officially diagnosed with Vascular Dementia in October 2022. In February 2023, she was placed in the first of 4 different Care Homes, all of which failed, due to Mum's physical and mental attitudes. Mum
finally moved into Dean Wood Manor in October 2023.
The care and attention at Dean Wood Manor has led to Mum being the happiest she's ever been, since getting diagnosed with this awful disease.
Mum's general attitude can often be confrontational and difficult. All the staff at the home are so patient and kind with Mum and they can pre-empt her moods and actions and make her life more bearable. We really could not be happier with the care she's received over the past two years.
James and I are so very grateful that Mum has finally found a home at Dean Wood Manor, where she is content, with such wonderful, caring and dedicated staff, who really have her best interest at heart.

All the staff are extremely friendly and welcoming at Avonleigh. Lots of smiling faces every time I visit! My friend has settled really well and feels comfortable in his room and the communal areas of the home. He is very well cared for and is happy. They often have special events/days where family
and friends are warmly welcomed in to spend time with their loved ones. It very much has a family feel about it.

Both of my parents have been residents in other care homes in the Wigan area but nothing has compared to Dean Wood Manor. My Mum has been there for many years and my Dad was there until his passing in June. The staff are amazing and they really care for the welfare, health and wellbeing of the residents.
They plan and monitor meticulously and I saw a marked improvement in Dad especially from the first few weeks of being there. They really are exceptional and communicate effectively with loved ones which is especially important for me and my brother as both live abroad. I can't recommend Dean Wood enough.

I recently visited several care homes for prospective place for my mother . None of them were a patch on Avonleigh Gardens. It is beautifully decorated so it looks more like a hotel than a care home . The gardens are large and easily accessible for the residents with plenty of benches scattered at different
locations in the garden. The staff are very vigilant in bringing out cushions and blankets when it's chilly and sun hats and sun screen and plenty of drinks in the warm weather.It's the little details that put Avonleigh above other homes. Home made cake is often given out for snacks as well
as for birthdays. A recent film afternoon offered popcorn to make the experience more realistic.I find it very reassuring that lost clothes and glasses/hearing aids are genuinely searched for and everything so far has been retrieved.I would highly recommend Avonleigh.

I travel down to visit my best friend and his father. The staff are always welcoming and friendly, even if I visit on my own! I follow the social media page and it is a joy seeing all the activities and trips out that the home provide. You can clearly see the residents are happy and well looked after.
My father recently passed from Alzheimer's, and the home community is so important!

My mum has dementia and is a very challenging lady. She is partially sighted and hard of hearing, she is however mobile.
The staff are outstanding, they are kind and patient and work with us, the family, to help mum. Her room is beautiful and practical. We have personalised it and she believes that
she is staying in a hotel! The staff ensure that she remains hydrated by offering a variety of drinks that she enjoys. The food is appetizing and as mum has a southern appetite, they offer alternatives if there is nothing that she fancies.
The garden area is fantastic with decking areas, numerous chairs and benches that are placed to enable privacy or encourage integration and interaction.
Mum has been out on trips and when she's feeling grumpy, is allowed to be alone but is discreetly monitored. She occasionally joins in with activities but sometimes is just happy to wash up!
Choosing a care home is incredibly challenging, Avonleigh and its staff made the process much simpler. Fantastic.
Reply from Jan Hunstone, Regional Manager at Avonleigh Gardens

Thank you so much for your review. This means so much to the team within the home. They work hard to ensure that all their residents are cared for in a professional manner at all times. The manager and team should be very proud of their high standard of care.
